The APC Smart-UPS SMT1500RMI2UNC is a rack-mountable uninterruptible power supply (UPS) in 2 U format, designed for use in IT infrastructures, server rooms, and network environments. It provides an output capacity of 1.5 kVA and an output power of 1000 W, with the output voltage delivering a pure sine wave (Sine) required for sensitive IT and network equipment. The UPS operates using line-interactive topology, which passes power directly through during normal mains voltage and automatically switches to battery power during voltage fluctuations or power outages. The response time is 2 ms, ensuring seamless power supply for connected devices. The output voltage is regulated to ±5 %, ensuring stable supply even with input voltage fluctuations between 151 V and 302 V. The output voltage range is 220 V to 240 V, with a nominal value of 230 V.

Applications

The UPS is designed for use in professional IT environments, particularly for servers, network switches, routers, and other critical IT infrastructure components. The rack-mounting in 2 U format enables integration into standard 19-inch racks. The devices are designed for indoor operation, with an operating temperature of 0 to 40 °C and relative humidity of 0 to 95 %. The maximum operating altitude is 3000 m above sea level.

Features and Equipment in Detail

The SMT1500RMI2UNC features four AC outlets with C13 connectors, suitable for connecting IT equipment. The input is via a C14 connector. The UPS is equipped with a pre-installed network management card (NMC) featuring an RJ-45 Ethernet port and a USB port. This enables web-based monitoring and remote management of the UPS over a network. The integrated PowerChute Network Shutdown software supports controlled shutdown of physical servers, virtual machines, and hyperconverged infrastructures (HCI) in the event of a power failure. The UPS also supports integration into the EcoStruxure IT platform or other SNMP-compatible management solutions.

Technology Explained Simply

The UPS uses a sealed lead-acid battery (VRLA) with a capacity of 432 Ah, enabling high energy delivery with minimal maintenance. The battery can be replaced in hot-swap mode without shutting down the UPS or connected devices. The battery recharge time is 3 hours. An automatic battery test regularly checks the battery condition to enable early detection of wear or defects. The cold start function allows the UPS to operate even without mains power, as long as the battery is charged. The UPS features an LCD display and LED indicators showing operational status, charge levels, and error messages. Audible signals inform the user of critical conditions, such as battery replacement.

Compatibility and Accessories

The UPS is equipped with a SmartSlot interface, enabling installation of additional management cards. Compatibility with replacement battery cartridges such as the APCRBC133 allows for easy battery replacement without interrupting operation. The UPS includes a rack mounting kit for installation in a 19-inch rack. The delivery includes an input cable, a USB cable, the pre-installed network management card, and a quick installation guide. The software CD is also included in the delivery.

Installation and Mounting

Mounting is performed in a standard 19-inch rack using the included rack mounting kit. Installation is supported by the included quick installation guide and software CD. Network connection is made via the RJ-45 port, with the network management card already pre-installed. The USB interface enables local control and diagnostics.

Operational Advantages

The UPS provides reliable surge protection against lightning strikes, voltage sags, and power outages. Web-based management enables centralized monitoring and control, even over long distances. The hot-swap battery and automatic battery test reduce maintenance effort and increase operational reliability. The integrated PowerChute software ensures controlled shutdown of IT systems to prevent data loss and hardware damage. The noise emission is 46 dB, which is acceptable for professional use. The UPS complies with standards EN/IEC 62040-1 and EN/IEC 62040-2 and carries certifications CE, EAC, GS Mark, VDE, RCM, IRAM, WEEE, and RoHS.
